This week on Open Sources Guelph, we're not feeling the love. One day before Valentine's Day, we will dive into some of the biggest news of the day including a crazy person's plans for one of the most volatile regions on the planet. Back here at home, there's some concern about post-secondary spending, which is a provincial jurisdiction and that reminds us: We have an other election candidate to talk to!
This Thursday, February 13, at 5 pm, Scotty Hertz and Adam A. Donaldson will discuss:
"We'll Own It." All quiet on the western front? Hardly. While the ceasefire between Israel and Hamas is holding, it hasn't been easy and there have been some new wrinkles. Specifically, it's Donald Trump's threat to seize Gaza and turn it into the "Riviera of the Middle East", which he reiterated this week in front of the King of Jordan (who couldn't get out of the White House fast enough). So should we be worried about Trump's threats, or is it just another distraction?
College-Level Economics. The new cap on international students is having an impact on Ontario's colleges with several now actively talking about deficits, job cuts and the elimination of programs. Some may blame these institutions for relying too much on the unrestricted tuition fees from students outside Canada, but this is also the result of the Ontario government's systemic underfunding over the last several years. With the election now halfway done, is it time to really talk about post-secondary finances?
Spence For Hire. The NDP are Ontario's official opposition, or, to put it another way, the government in waiting. Cameron Spence has also been waiting. He's one of millions of Ontarians who have been struggling in the current economy and have dealt with the housing crisis first hand, and now he wants to do something about it as Guelph's next MPP. We will talk to Spence about his non-political path to this election, and why Guelph should reject its current representative and take a flyer on an NDP-led legislature.
Open Sources is live on CFRU 93.3 fm and cfru.ca at 5 pm on Thursday.
